This internationally famous work on the dynamics of liquids and gases enjoys a unique position in technical literature. Most authors refer their readers to it rather than to other works for fundamental theorems, equations, and detailed methods of solution. It has never been superseded as an encyclopedic coverage of all aspects of classical hydrodynamics

"Regarded as the sixth edition of a Treatise on the mathematical theory of the motion of fluids, published in 1879"--Preface
